Oops!

Wow....mama's last post was in SEPTEMBER last year! Shame on me, kiddoes!

Lots have happened so far...Adan started Primary One at Tanjong Katong Primary School. Why TKPS? Because mama is under some deluded idea that because it has a good mix of nationalities, you will get exposed to different cultures (at local school rates) :)

Your teacher Madam Mala is impressed with your creativity and language skills, but says you can't stay focused on your work, cos you're always drawing on your work sheets....no surprises there, my little boo.

Summer, and Anais: you gals have started school at YWCA McNair, and now that we're probably moving east-ward, transferring to YWCA Marine Drive...if only mama and dada can get their act together and decide on a place to live already!

Karate Smiles

This is a photo of you, Adan and Ruby - your Karate classmate. You both look so cute. Its taken by Ruby's parents. Gorgeous smiles. You and Mama signed up for the class - leaving most Dada to the girls most of the weekends.

10th anniversary dinner at Pan Pac

Dearest gorgeous noisy ones

Having had no time to plan the fabulous 10th anniversary party at 9pm on 8/7 (10-9-8-7...mama is very cheesy, yes?) we took you all out for a nice buffet dinner instead! A rare occasion indeed considering we don't have buffets too often these days.

Of course the nice restaurant ended up looking like a day care centre gone wrong with strewn crayons, random pieces of paper with drawings and scribbles, forks and food on the floor... And that was just adan's mess!

We had a great time and it was great celebrating it with all of you (and extended family Gloria and Kai).

Errr...can I sit in the front of the car dada?

Adan this one's about you bababoom!

Today in the car u very politely asked if you could leave the car through the front row. We asked why but you just insisted on leaving through the front.

Finally, you admitted," you're going to scold me and not let me play iPhone for 10 days if j tell you."

"remember the other day when you let me eat the banana? I left the skin in the rubbish tray ( which is on the side door where he sits) and now there are 2 cockroaches in there!"

We laughed cos we were amused at how oblique you were about this, insisting on using the front door of the car.

Nobody nobody but chiu

We were having a nice outing to good ole parkway parade today when we went to Harvey Norman and the Wondergirls' song Nobody nobody but you was playing. Looks like we have a couple of wondergirls fans on our hands, Summer n Anais. Wish we had photos of you girls dancing to the song!

New home sweet home

Dearest Kiddies,

It's been a long and stressful week what with all the moving, filing taxes and so on.

We've unpacked about 1/2 of our stuff, and have yet to decide where all the furniture goes, so I've posted some "generic pics" of our new place first....will upload more when we finally take some of our own pics!

Glad you kids are settling in well and enjoying running around the place. As dada says, don't get too used to the space! It's only for 15 months!

Love, mama.

I can handle....

Dear Adan,

Here is a funny one... We were on the way home after a busy weekend of running around preparing for our move. You suddenly proclaimed that you needed to go to the toilet for a big one... But since we were still out you said 'I can handle it till we get home' !!
